@hulu no Audio Description track for The Bear Part 3? What’s going on??

So many journalists and musicians, myself included, got their start because of you, Bob. Hard to overstate your impact on the business and art of music. I am so grateful to have worked with you and the team. As a young professional your support meant everything to me. Be Well🙏

After 35 years, I am leaving NPR. I've had the thrill of creating Tiny Desk Concerts, All Songs Considered, directing All Things Considered for 18 years and so much more. I love the people I've worked with, but it's time to find new challenges. thank you for listening/watching.

As a nonspeaking student and now educator, iPad enables me to learn and be heard. Thank you, @Apple, for hosting me at Apple Fifth Avenue to share my story and thoughts on approaching the school year in inclusive, innovative ways. #TodayAtApple

Accessibility is essential to building a more equitable world. For decades, we’ve been committed to designing technology with the input, expertise, and creativity of people with disabilities — technology that can be used by everyone. https://t.co/Wi0ZEjrnSA

[Will Butler @willkbutler]

There are thousands of stories just like this — of people with disabilities working in the medical profession. Love hearing them ⁦@DrDevikaB⁩ https://t.co/fmwxrdhsxv

Please understand: advances towards “back to normal” largely involve the reversal of accessibility measures.

Telehealth appointments? Accessibility.

Remote work? Accessibility.

Widespread delivery and curbside pickup options? Accessibility.

“Normal” isn’t good enough.
